Health Practices and Behaviors Grades 6-8 Students demonstrate a healthy practice and/or behavior to maintain or improve their own health in each of the following areas: personal hygiene, healthy eating; physical activity; and tobacco, alcohol, and other drug use prevention. Rationale: This lesson will reinforce the ideas behind incorporating a balanced diet into your life and also maintaining a physically active lifestyle.The students will be able to actually see how everything works and carry their knowledge with them to hopefully use these nutrition and workout plans for their own health.
Assessment
Formative (Assessment for Learning)
*Students will be doing some self-assessing and will have a checklist to follow. Providing a checklist will help keep the students aware of the progress they have made and what they need to work on. Students will be able to meet with their peers and share their ideas.By sharing their ideas with their peers, they will be able to have a discussion with classmates and then hearing each others’ opinions.
Summative (Assessment of Learning)
*The final product will be a Wiki page that they have created after following the WebQuest.The Wiki page will have their workout plan and nutrition plan that they have developed with their partners which were chosen randomly by me.There will be two rubrics for the students to go by, one for their Wiki page and one for their presentation of their Wiki page.
Integration
Technology-Students will be creating their Wiki pages that they have developed while going through their WebQuests.
Groupings
The students will be working in partners for most of the lesson while they develop their Wiki pages that they will be presenting.They will also be sharing their ideas with other pairs to get some feedback before finalizing their Wiki page.
Differentiated Instruction
Strategies
*Verbal: Sharing ideas with groups.
Interpersonal: Being in groups for feedback and sharing.
Intrapersonal: Working on wiki page individually doing research and finding resources.
Kinesthetic: Using their laptops for reserach and moving to groups.
Visual: Looking at others examples.
Natualisic: The students can have a chance to get outside and do something that is physically active.
Modifications/Accommodations
*I will review students’ IEPs, 504s or ELLIDEPs and make the appropriate modifications and accommodations. It will make a difference with how much time the student has to complete something depending on why they have missed a class. They will need a note explaining why they have missed the class and it will be excused which will give them 2 days to turn in the work they have missed. If they cannot present a note they will only have one day to turn in the homework they have missed. It is the student’s job to ask a fellow classmate what they have missed.
Extensions
*The students will be working on their assignments through a WebQuest that I have created.Type II technology will also be incorporated through their final product which they will be creating a Wiki page.Also, they will be using fitday.com to create their workout and nutrition plan.

Teaching and Learning Sequence:
Agenda BMR calculator Explore links individually Introduce WebQuest Begin working on Wiki page with partners The students will be taking their seats before class begins.The desks will be arranged in groups of four or tables with four students at each table.Once everyone is seated and they are all in groups, the students will go to the website for BMR (http://www.bmi-calculator.net/bmr-calculator).This will be the hook that will get the students engaged and relate this specific idea directly to them as individuals.In this lesson, the idea is to get the students interested in developing a nutrition plan and workout plan in a fun but also to really understand the importance of leading an overall healthy lifestyle.Students demonstrate a healthy practice and/or behavior to maintain or improve their own health in each of the following areas: personal hygiene, healthy eating; physical activity; and tobacco, alcohol, and other drug use prevention. (5 minutes) Where, Why, What, Hook, Tailor: Verbal, Visual, Intrapersonal
After the students have looked over the statistics, they will have the opportunity to discuss their thoughts and opinions with the students who are seated at their table or group of desks.I will then select partner for each student at random.I will give the students at the tables of four a number, 1-4 and the ones will be partnered up with the twos and the threes will be partnered up with the fours.Then I will inform them that the ones and threes will be nutritionists and the twos and fours will be physical trainers.They will then have a chance to read over their WebQuests individually.They will be able to explore the links on the WebQuest and figure out how they are going to complete their assignment.(10 minutes) Equip, Explore, Rethink, Tailors: Interpersonal, Intrapersonal, Bodily/Kinesthetic, Verbal, Visual
At this point, students will be able to start working on their products.They will have the opportunity to use the link that has been provided to complete their assignment.The students will also need to do more research for their own part of the Wiki page and gain a true understanding so that they will be prepared to share during their presentation.At the end of this lesson, students will be able to develop and nutrition and workout plan for an individual that needs to lose weight by a specific time.(50 minutes) Explore, Experience, Rethink, Tailors: Bodily/Kinesthetic, Visual, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal
Students will be evaluated by following the checklist that has been provided. The checklist will outline exactly what needs to be put on the Wiki page and clearly explain what their expectations are. There will also be two rubrics provided for them to go by while creating their final product; one for their Wiki page and the other for the presentation of their Wiki page.If they student do not complete their Wiki page with the class time provided, they will discuss with their partners how they will be able to finish it for the following class period.They will need to go over their checklist that night and make sure they have complete what needs to be completed for the next class.I will inform the students that they will need to be prepared for the next class to present their Wiki pages and have a printed version.
